Verona is a small village at the southwestern edge of Grundy County, in Vienna Township, set among farmland well away from the Illinois River corridor to the north. Flood exposure across the community is minimal, though a low-lying or creek-adjacent lot could still touch a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area. A FEMA Elevation Certificate documents a building’s elevation against the Base Flood Elevation.
A FEMA Elevation Certificate documents your building’s elevation relative to the Base Flood Elevation on the FEMA flood map. Insurers use it to rate flood policies and communities use it to confirm floodplain compliance; it can also support a Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA) to remove a structure from a flood zone.

Verona is a small community in Vienna Township, at the southwestern edge of Grundy County. Its distance from the Illinois River means mapped Special Flood Hazard Areas are largely absent here, with flood exposure generally confined to isolated low ground or local drainage. For any parcel that does fall inside a FEMA flood zone, a licensed surveyor completes the Elevation Certificate by measuring the lowest floor and grade against the Base Flood Elevation, giving insurers the data to rate coverage and the county the information for floodplain permit review. A building documented above the flood level can use the certificate to support a Letter of Map Amendment. Grundy County recording for Verona is handled by the Grundy County Recorder’s Office in the county seat of Morris.
Very few. Verona sits on farmland away from the Illinois River in southwestern Grundy County, so mapped FEMA flood risk is minimal and limited to isolated low-lying parcels.
Only a licensed professional land surveyor (or, where authorized, an engineer or architect) may certify the elevation measurements on the FEMA Elevation Certificate form.
They are recorded through the Grundy County Recorder’s Office, located in the county seat of Morris.
